Chapter 324: Chapter 324: Crying on the Wheelchair

Translator: 549690339 |

Jiang Ning was about to lodge an accusation, when a eunuch ran over, heaving and panting, “Your Majesty, there’s a fire in the East Palace and the Crown Prince is injured!”

The Emperor was taken aback: “How serious is the injury?”

The eunuch replied: “I took a glance, it seems quite severe. The Imperial Physician is already on the way to the East Palace.”

The Emperor frowned: “What happened? Why was there a fire? Was it intentional or something else, have any details been found?”

“Well… although we haven’t found out yet, the fire started from the Crown Prince’s sleeping quarters. At that time… it seems someone saw the Princess Consort of Yu…”

The eunuch stuttered, glancing at Jiang Ning as he spoke.

The Emperor looked at Jiang Ning: “Ningning, does this have anything to do with you?”

After a moment’s thought, Jiang Ning replied forthrightly, “Yes, it does.”

A flicker of seriousness crossed the Emperor’s face, he instructed the eunuch, “You all, leave.”

Once the servants had all withdrawn, the Emperor softened his tone and asked, “Ningning, tell me what really happened. When you walked in, I noticed something was wrong by looking at your face.”

Before the Emperor had even finished his sentence, a stream of tears welled up in the corner of Jiang Ning’s eyes, “I beg you to bring me justice, Your Majesty.” “Speak!”

“The Crown Prince mistreated me.” Jiang Ning choked on her words.

“You were attending the banquet held by the Princess Consort, how did you get involved with the Crown Prince?”

“I was well and fine at the banquet, but later I felt unwell. I wanted to excuse myself and leave early. Who knew the Princess Consort would take advantage of my solitude, had the East Palace eunuch tie me up and bring me to the Crown Prince’s room…”

The Emperor could hardly believe his ears: “Could such a thing really happen?” “Your Majesty, would I joke about such a matter? Even if you rewarded me a hundred guts, I wouldn’t dare to slander the Crown Prince this way!” Jiang Ning lifted her sleeve to wipe her tears, secretly pinched herself, and the tears immediately started flowing again.

The Emperor was already 70 to 80 percent convinced.

After all, a woman’s reputation is important. If it hadn’t really happened, she, as the Princess Consort of Yu, would never slander the Crown Prince in such a matter.

The Emperor maintained a serious expression: “Go on.”

“Yes,” Jiang Ning sobbed, “I am physically disabled, how could I resist them?

The Crown Prince said, said…”

“What did he say?”

“He said, he wanted me to be his woman.”

“What?” The Emperor smashed his hand on the table, “Shameless!”

“Yes, too shameless!” Jiang Ning expressed her agreement.

The Emperor shot a glance at her, “Then what happened?”

“Then, the Crown Prince tried to take advantage of me. I was so scared, and I accidentally started a fire… If it wasn’t for the fire, I am afraid I would have been violated by that beast of a prince. Wuu wuu wuu!”

Jiang Ning collapsed onto the wheelchair in tears.

The Emperor:”  ”

He had lived a long life, but he had never seen any girl so candidly cry and pour out her grievance of being bullied.

Though he knew that most women lied and played the victim, looking at her beautiful face, wet with tears, the Emperor found himself instinctively believing Jiang Ning’s words.

“Don’t cry now,” The Emperor said slowly, “If I find out this is true, I will not let it slide.”

Jiang Ning quietly wiped off her tears.

Anyway, she had lodged an accusation, she didn’t believe that the Emperor would actually do something to the Crown Prince because of this matter.

Even if he were to reprimand, punish, it would all be useless.

Her ultimate goal was still far away.

Her ultimate aim was to dethrone Li Jixian, to make him live a life worse than death, with no way to live, and no way to die!
